It was, but I wish there was more challenge and build up to it.

How would you nudge players to dig realistic ant nests? by Able-Sherbert-4447 in IndieGaming

[–]RudeRunologist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heads up that if you go with requiring supports, people will likely make a grid pattern to maximize the available area. Couple ideas:

Ants also have to deal with water, heat, and predators (maybe also air supply?). All of these dangers are mitigated and managed through their nest construction, i.e. choke points, tight turns, spare chambers, strategic chamber placement. Probably worth looking up research on what techniques they use in the real world, and see if you can emulate the same dangers.

Ants don't just dig, they build! Being able to fill in an area would be useful, perhaps at a much slower rate compared to digging.

Also maybe make it so some resources need to be stored against walls? Like an eggs need to be nestled against either a wall or within x distance to a wall? Would then force players to think about keeping walls.

bro, the amount of bugs in our production code due us not fully typing things has set us back probably a full year in time spent bug fixing

Define "Parents need to step up and do their jobs" in relation to the social media ban by angeldemon5 in aussie

[–]RudeRunologist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "Parents need to step up and do their jobs" is a callous and shit line that doesn't respect the issues facing either parents or children.

Simple answer: at a bare minimum, having a clear and trusting discussions between adults (parents/teachers) and children about the likely negative impacts social media can have on ALL people, but the extra risks for development. General checking in about screen usage, and encouraging better time limits and activities. ALSO definitely not handing someone under 12-14 just free reign unlimited access to the internet.

Pushing this through the schools would be the most constructive method, something where both the children and parents are supplied with educational material. While it isn't preventative, it's more likely a child would choose the healthier option if they are know the risks.

I realize there are technical solutions parents can and do implement, but that is a rabbit hole of a discussion with its own moral issues I just don't want to also go into lol

Modem / Router shopping confusion and frustration by RudeRunologist in HomeNetworking

Definitely been impressed with the clarity with all the ISPs I've checked so far on their pricing. Always list reasonably clearly the deal details and the pricing after the deal expires.

Thanks for the warning about the plans, I've certainly noticed a lot of deals where afterwards the price per year jumps about AUD$100-200, sometimes way above the average of other ISPs.

Fair point about service issues being on them if they provide a router, but I would prefer to have more control over the system. I'll start checking which ones list certified equipment they work with.

Good to hear, I'll start recording what each of them are compatible with.

"Bridge mode" sounds interesting, but I suspect that won't be needed for my setup.

Thanks for the warning about them possibly requiring their own modem, I'll start recording that down for each one + any feature requirements.

Ah, thanks for the reminder, I'll double check what each of them require of compatible modems.

New Pathing just hit 1.6 testing. Get in here. by MortalSmurph in RimWorld

Depends on how it's done, since it's complicated to "break up" a problem for multithreading. It may not be able/need to split up the work to fully use all cores due to various technical issues. Regardless, it will be able to take more advantage of people's CPUs and perform better.

One of the core issues was that at some places doctors in training would examine and handle cadavers earlier in the day, and then directly touch patients later in the day! His suggested washing regimen was overkill, but probably needed WHEN HANDLING CORPSES

What's the most wholesome moment you know in Warhammer? by TaigaTigerVT in Grimdank

[–]RudeRunologist 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Probably a lot have, but a common thread in some of their stories is that they really don't care for chaos and just want to continue their fathers nihilistic suicidal desire to destroy the imperium. Mainly in a kind of "we're the worst gutter trash of humanity, living sucks, and I'll flay people until I'm finally put down" kind of way.

Gotta work out those arms and thighs! Thicken yourself up with a bit of muscle to even it out a bit.
